Verdict

BAY OF KOTOR makes a quick reappearance under a penalty after scoring at Fairyhouse on Saturday and as this looks a weaker race can go in again. Glamorous won a couple of races on the Flat and likes soft ground so must be of interest on her handicap debut while Lilywhitedancer has some decent form to his credit in better company than this. Askmeroe looks a major threat as though better known as a staying chaser these days he can race from a 24lb lower mark over hurdles and connections will be expecting him to take advantage.
